Steph Curry signs $62m one-year extension with Warriors
Stephen Curry’s tenure with the Golden State Warriors will last even longer.
The Warriors star and former Kia NBA MVP winner has signed a one-year extension, the team announced on Thursday.
The deal, worth a reported $62.6 million, will keep him with the team through the 2026-27 season. Curry is guaranteed $178 million over the next three years of his Warriors deal..
Curry’s contract extension comes approximately three years after he signed a four-year, $215 million extension that marked the second $200 million-plus deal in Curry’s career that includes four NBA titles, two Kia NBA MVP awards and countless records in team and NBA history.
Curry is now guaranteed about $178 million for the next three seasons; about $55.8 million for this season, about $59.6 million for 2025-26 and now about $62.6 million — the most the Warriors could offer by league rule — for 2026-27.
When that season ends, Curry’s on-court earnings will have reached about $532 million, which for now ranks as second-most in NBA history behind only LeBron James’ $580 million in player contracts.
Last season, Curry averaged 26.4 points, 4.5 rebounds and 5.1 assists while shooting 45% overall and 40.8% on 3-pointers.
He led the NBA in clutch scoring and was the recipient of the 2023-24 Kia NBA Clutch Player of the Year award. He led the league in several clutch categories, including points (189), 3-pointers (32) and field goals made (59), hitting 49.6% from the field, 45.7% from 3-point range and 39-of-41 from the free throw line (95.1%).
The 2023-24 season marked Curry’s 15th with the franchise and he was an All-Star for the 10th time in his career. He is the NBA’s all-time leader in 3-pointers (made and attempted) and won Finals MVP honors in 2022 after leading Golden State to its most recent championship.
Golden State is entering a new era in 2024-25 after Curry’s longtime “Splash Bros.” teammate, Klay Thompson, left for the Dallas Mavericks in free agency over the summer via a sign-and-trade deal. Draymond Green — a key part of the Curry and Thompson era — will be a part of the team this season as it tries to build around youngsters Jonathan Kuminga, Brandin Podziemski and Trayce Jackson-Davis.
